The
demand for food continues to rise and less agricultural land is
available. The yields per hectare have to rise. Spray quality is the
fact of the right drop reaching the right spot. To contribute to the
increasing quality of crop care, Agrifac comes with its next innovative
solution: actual application determination based on the actual speed, measured through GPS and wheel sensors.

StabiloPlus
was developed for one purpose: self-propelled spraying. Just like its
predecessors, the new Condor also boasts the unique StabiloPlus chassis.
The basis for this chassis was laid more than 25 years ago.
Specifically developed for self-propelled sprayers, this suspended
chassis runs smoothly and effortlessly on all uneven surfaces. The
Condor comes with individual pneumatic suspension as standard, which
provides excellent driving comfort. StabiloPlus and the pneumatic
suspension ensure that you have an extremely stable and comfortable
sprayer, both on the road and in the field. A great benefit for the
stability of the spray booms, both horizontal and vertical. The Condor
has a stepless track width adjustment
of 150-225 cm* as standard which can be adjusted via the EcoTronicPlus
touchscreen. Ideal for farmers and contractors to apply to all crops and
cultivations. StabiloPlus also assures an ideal weight distribution in
all situations for optimal traction and the least possible ground
pressure. Through its low weight and low centre of gravity, the sprayer
can also maintain its standard high ground clearance of 125 cm during
road transport. With a maximum speed of 50 km/h on the road (depending
on national legislation), you keep the transport time to a minimum.

Optimisation
application rate. Measuring the speed with wheel sensors was already
standard at Agrifac. Now the speed is also measured with GPS. This
combined gives a most accurate speed which is used to optimize the
application rate. A solution which is called: "Brilliant Simple". Wet or
hilly conditions Especially under wet or hilly circumstances this
ofters a great advantage. Wheel spin negatively influences the
application rate, over and under dosing takes place. With this
innovation the right drop ends up at the right spot so that the spray
quality is optimized and higher yields are achieved. Infos: Agata
